Bug Description

When entering the estimated time to completion in a task, the text entry on-screen keyboard appears rather than the numerical one. On keyboardless devices like the HTC Magic, this requires an extra key press to get to numerical input.

Version: 2.8.6

Hardware: HTC Magic (Rogers)

I based my change off of
http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2009/04/updating-applications-for-on-screen.html
, which states that it requires Android 1.5 and the Input methods
framework.

I suppose it is up to you and your team to decide if android 1.0 is
worth supporting.

I don't know how I missed this comment! I don't think anyone is using Android 1.0 anymore, and I saw that article, but it doesn't seem to have any impact on whether the full keyboard is actually displayed.
